Caterer prepares and serves food at an event. It is included in every Buzz Legal subscription.
Food Safety Act 1990 and Food Hygiene (England) Regulations 2013 — the caterer must be a registered food business; Food Information Regulations 2014 — allergen information must be provided. Where the customer is a consumer, CRA 2015 applies and cancellation charges must be a genuine pre-estimate of loss, not a penalty (ParkingEye v Beavis [2015] UKSC 67).
Read it against your own business before you issue it, and change what does not fit: what you sell, who you sell to, what you have already agreed and what has already gone wrong decide whether a clause protects you.
